Hello all, I was curious what the easiest way to do this will be. I've had an SSD with Windows installed for the past couple of years, but I didn't switch from the HDD because I was in school and was doing work on there pretty regularly. I know I'll need to update Windows on the SSD, but I want...

I'm getting a new PC and I want to transfer everything I have on my current one onto the new one. I'm planning on doing this by purchasing a new CPU, motherboard, RAM, etc. Everything is the same brand (i.e. Gigabyte) except for the CPU and GPU, which I'm going from AMD to Intel and from Radeon...

I've never done this before, and failed to google. From what I understand I can just mirror everything, and replace drives and I am done. Can i use Dual Slots RAID Enclosure? Set it to raid 0, mirror (do i use soft?). And when I stick new drives into my computer, they will be bootable and work...
